Leave it to Biden to muck (sic) things up when it involves foreign policy decisions. If you can think of even one good decision this bozo has made, please comment below.
Now the plan is for federal law enforcement agencies to buy surveillance drones from the Communist China government.
What could possibly go wrong?
Well, our military has given multiple warnings to the Biden-Harris-etc.-etc. administration that drones sold to us by our enemy poses a serious threat to our national security, to which our demented leader asked, "what's a drone?"
“The Secret Service bought eight DJI drones on July 26, according to procurement records obtained by the industry publication IPVM,” Axios reported. “That was three days after the Defense Department released a statement saying DJI products ‘pose potential threats to national security.'”
The outlet then cited records showing the FBI bought 19 drones made by the same Communist China-based company, owned and operated by the Chinese government.
The U.S. military repeatedly warned against using the drones during the Trump administration, which is likely why the current incompetent administration bought the damn things--if Trump hated it, they love it. The military is still trying to warn these political cretins against using the drones while Biden pretends to be in charge.
“The Department of Defense (DOD) position is that systems produced by Da Jiang Innovations (DJI) pose potential threats to national security,” the Pentagon warned this summer. “Existing DOD policy and practices associated with the use of these systems by U.S. government entities and forces working with U.S. military services remain unchanged contrary to any written reports not approved for release by the DOD.”

It isn't known whether the drones simply steal information from the U.S. or if they violently explode when flying over populated areas--it's anyone's guess. But if Trump refused to buy them, that's good enough for Chief Sniffing Hair. After all, he and his son, Hunter, have a financial interest in China's economic growth.
“In 2018, DOD issued a ban on the purchase and use of all commercial off-the-shelf drones, regardless of manufacturer, due to cybersecurity concerns,” the statement added. “The following year, Congress passed legislation specifically banning the purchase and use of drones and components manufactured in China. DOD complies with Section 848 of the FY20 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and additional guidance provided by Executive Order 13981.”
The Department of Homeland Security warned in 2017 that it had “moderate confidence that Chinese-based company DJI Science and Technology is providing U.S. critical infrastructure and law enforcement data to the Chinese government.”

The Department of Homeland Security warned in 2017 that it had “moderate confidence that Chinese-based company DJI Science and Technology is providing U.S. critical infrastructure and law enforcement data to the Chinese government.”
The DHS warned that it has:
“…high confidence [DJI] is selectively targeting government and privately owned entities within these sectors to expand its ability to collect and exploit sensitive U.S. data.”
“…high confidence a foreign government with access to this information could easily coordinate physical or cyber attacks against critical sites.”
“…high confidence that outside of DJI’s goal to attain law enforcement customers, DJI’s criteria for selecting accounts to target appears to focus on the account holder’s ability to disrupt critical infrastructure. As a result, DJI has amassed customers such as American Water, Union Pacific, and American Electric Power, some of the biggest utility and transportation companies in the United States.”
“…high confidence the critical infrastructure and law enforcement entities using DJI systems are collecting sensitive intelligence that the Chinese government could use to conduct physical or cyber attacks against the United States and its population. Alternatively, China could provide DJI information to terrorist organizations, hostile non-state entities, or state-sponsored groups to coordinate attacks against U.S. critical infrastructure. The UAS capture close-up imagery and GPS information on water systems, rail systems, hazardous material storage systems, first responders’ activity, and construction of highways, bridges, and rails.”
It's good to know how confident DHS is with what it believes to be true. That gives me high confidence in knowing that our current POTUS hasn't a clue as to what he's doing other than when he's eating ice cream.
Joe Biden is an embarrassment to the country.
